Shenyang New World Hotel Experience Report: A Meeting of Eco-Art and Slow Living

Shenyang New World Hotel is more than just a luxurious stay—it's an "urban living room" where sustainability, art, and local culture converge. Facing the Hun River and Shenshuiwan Park, it stands opposite the Shengjing Grand Theater across the street. Just downstairs, you'll find the K11 Shopping Art Center and Wulihe Subway Station, making it a transportation hub for exploring Shenyang's attractions like the Shenyang Imperial Palace and Xita within 30 minutes.

The hotel champions eco-consciousness. Bulk refillable toiletries reduce plastic waste, while the rooftop "Succulent Garden" grows local herbs and vegetables, supplying the restaurants with farm-to-table freshness. In-room glass bottles provide filtered water via A.O. Smith systems, and eggs come from free-range "Happy Chicken Farms." Heartwarmingly, the hotel collaborates with "children from the stars," employing deaf pastry chefs who communicate sweetness through sign language.

Exceptionally pet-friendly, it’s Shenyang’s first star-rated pet-welcoming hotel. With prior notice, pets enjoy dedicated beds and bowls. Right outside lies Shenshuiwan Park, perfect for furry friends to roam freely.

The hotel doubles as an art gallery, offering photogenic backdrops. Capture the poetic Hun River at different times of day, or admire Shenyang’s historical layers from the rooftop sky garden, where lush greenery makes for stunning shots.

Dining delights await. "Shenyang Kitchen" all-day restaurant serves breakfast with northeastern specialties like lüdagun (glutinous rice rolls) and Laobian dumplings. Dinner features a seafood buffet with unlimited lobster and salmon sashimi, paired with Hun River sunset views. "Yuge Fengtian" Chinese restaurant offers authentic northeastern dishes in an open-kitchen setting, while the six themed private dining rooms at "Sky Mansion" draw inspiration from the Shenyang Imperial Palace, offering 360° panoramas for memorable gatherings.

Slow living thrives here. Cycle or jog along the Hun River at dawn, let pets play in Shenshuiwan Park, or swim in the temperature-controlled skylight pool. The gym’s privacy screens ensure comfort. By night, catch a light show at Shengjing Grand Theater or sip cocktails at "Drunk Cube" bar, where industrial chic meets riverside starlit charm.
